twenty nineteen porch line

Hailing from New Zealand, via London, New York for a decade and now planted in the dirty D. A creative director of sorts, a lover of graphic agitation, Rick Poyner's POV and high contrast.  

After a childhood of scribbling he pursued a degree in design and moved to London before landing in Detroit amidst its revolution.

"This lines champions everything dear to us, from family values, to the possibilities of the neighbors empty pool over the summer to the tough conversations under the porch light with your father. We celebrate the uncelebrated culture of low-fashion. The one that’s seldom pretty and can sure get real. Sometimes it comes with a bottle of rye, sometimes you just gotta step off and ride away... But you always come back. Cos FAM'LY."

His apparel and aesthetic influencers are varied from Alexander McQueen, David Carson, Ana Teresa Fernandez, Stefan Sagmeister, The Black Madonna and the guy who designs sales signs for gas stations and the 7/11. 

A husband, father of two, a part time painter, part time skater, part time snowboarder and a full time dad. Sitting porch proud.
